I have a question about how to collect the already existed skywalking trace into opentelemetry's collector in a springboot project. The springboot project has integrated the skywalking agent and the opentelemetry agent. Thank you.

Do you want to migrate old skywalking traces to otel?

yes

I couldn’t find any such tool

there is a skywalking doc:https://skywalking.apache.org/docs/main/next/en/setup/backend/opentelemetry-receiver/#opentelemetry-receiver

Looks like we haven’t enabled skywalking receiver at signoz-otel-collector. cc: @Srikanth Chekuri

oh, I misunderstand your meaning, I do not want to migrate old skywalking traces to otel, I want to delivery the skywalking trace by otel

@yinjianpeng If you integrate opentelemetry java agent then you don’t need skywalking receiver

but those legacy springboot projects are using skywalking, i can't remove the skywalking agent, i only can append opentelemetry agent to delivery the skywalking trace to otel collector.

Understood. We can give you a custom otel-collector build with skywalking receiver.

That's very kind of you.

You will need SigNoz otel collector to write to clickhouse.

@yinjianpeng, you can also run

otelcol-contrib_0.64.1_linux_amd64

on your server as an “agent” and forward the telemetry to SigNoz instance.
